Still on the Manuel Izquierdo trail. For MONTHS R has been searching for a sculpture that was at the Seattle World’s Fair “Century 21” in 1962, which was called “Figure”. He had a photocopy of a B&W photo showing the piece…
but nobody knew where it was. Katrina at Laura Russo tried to track it down, to no avail. Today a collector called Roger about a piece of Manuel’s they had that R might like to borrow for the show in 2013, and in conversation it came up that the collector owned another sculpture R might be interested in. Though it is currently at his vacation home, he DID have a photo of it…an old photo from a PAM brochure celebrating PAM’s 75th anniversary in 1967. I bet you can guess…WOOHOO! (Thanks Marilyn!)
